What is NEO ?

NEO is a blockchain and coin system to create a smarter way of transferring currency between users. It’s divided into two different tokens (similar to Ethereum): the first is NEO (or Antshares, code: ANS), and the second is GAS (or Antcoins, code: ANC). and they both have extremely specific uses. The primary aim of NEO is to become a digital, decentralized and distributed representative of non-digital assets, through the use of smart contracts. This means that its goal is to become a digital alternative for asset transfers that are currently non-digital (e.g., paying rent using a smart contract that triggers automatically once a month, in preference to writing and mailing a monthly cheque).
